The Anthem approach
Gum disease is quiet. It doesn't hurt at first — it just slowly loosens the ground your teeth stand on. Nearly half of adults over 30 have some form of it, and it's the leading cause of adult tooth loss.
We treat gum disease at every stage: scaling and root planing to eliminate infection below the gumline, soft-tissue laser therapy for gentler healing, and surgical options for advanced cases. Caught early, it's fully manageable — and we're very good at catching it early.
- Comprehensive gum evaluation at every exam
- Soft-tissue laser therapy for gentler treatment
- Scaling & root planing that stops disease progression
- Protects against tooth loss and systemic health risks

FAQ
Periodontal Treatment — your questions, answered.
What are the signs of gum disease?
Bleeding when you brush or floss, persistent bad breath, receding gums, and tenderness. In later stages, teeth may loosen or shift. Bleeding gums are never normal.
Is a deep cleaning painful?
We numb the areas being treated, so the procedure itself is comfortable. Mild tenderness afterward fades within a day or two.
Can gum disease be cured?
Gingivitis — the early stage — is fully reversible. Established periodontitis can't be cured but can be stopped and controlled for life with treatment and maintenance.
